Former Vanderbilt standout Jacqui Concolino earned her LPGA Tour card on Thursday at Q-School with a five-over, 365 (70-72-71-76-76), finishing in a tie for 20th at LPGA International in Daytona Beach, Fla.
Concolino won Category 11 membership in the 2012 LPGA Tour after finishing in the top 20 at Q School. There was a nine-way tie for 20th, and Lizette Salas birdied all three holes in a three-hole playoff to receive the final full membership.
The top 20 (with no ties) at Q School earns full membership to the LPGA tour for the next year.
Concolino was a first-team All-American in 2007 for Vanderbilt and led the Commodores to the 2006 NCAA Women’s Golf Championship, which was also held at LPGA International. She is also the only Vanderbilt golfer to claim a regional individual championship – she claimed the 2007 Central Regional Championship in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
